It takes about 1 1/2 hours to cook in the oven. Mine was actually done in 60 minutes so I would start checking it about then.<br />
<br />
--- --- ---Meatloaf---<br />
2 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter<br />
1 Onion, finely chopped<br />
6 Ounce White Mushrooms, trimmed and sliced thin<br />
1 Tablespoon Tomato Paste<br />
3 Tablespoon and 1/2 Cup Chicken Broth<br />
2 Garlic Cloves, minced<br />
2 Large Eggs<br />
2 Tablespoon Soy Sauce<br />
1 Tablespoon Unflavored Gelatin<br />
1/2 Slice Hearty White Sandwich Bread, torn into 1 inch pieces<br />
1/3 Cup Minced Fresh Parsley<br />
2 Teaspoon Dijon Mustard<br />
3/4 Teaspoon Pepper<br />
1/2 Teaspoon Dried Thyme<br />
1 Pound Ground Pork<br />
1 Pound 85% Lean Ground Beef (recommended ground chuck)<br />
--- --- ---Glaze---<br />
1/2 Cup Ketchup<br />
1/4 Cup Cider Vinegar<br />
3 Tablespoon Packed Brown Sugar<br />
1 Teaspoon Hot Sauce<br />
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Coriander<br />
<br />
<br />
1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350. Line a large rimmed cookie sheet with<br />
foil. Use foil to create a 9x5 inch rectangle. Place the foil rectangle on a cooling rack and center it<br />
on your lined cookie sheet. Poke holes in the foil rectangle about 1/2 inch apart. Spray foil with<br />
Pam.<br />
2. Melt butter in 12 inch skillet over medium heat. Add onion and mushrooms. Cook, stirring<br />
occasionally, until beginning to brown, 10-12 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stir constantly,<br />
until browned, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add 3 T broth and garlic, cook, scraping the<br />
bottom of pan to loosen any browned bits, until thickened, about 1 minute. Transfer mushroom<br />
mixture to a large bowl to cool.<br />
3. Whisk eggs, remaining 1/2 cup broth, and soy sauce together in bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over egg<br />
mixture and let sit until gelatin softens, about 5 minutes.<br />
4.
Pulse bread in food processor until finely ground, 5-10 pulses. Ad
gelatin mixture, mushroom mixture, parsley, mustard, pepper, and thyme
to bread crumbs and pulse until mushroom are finely<br />
ground, about 10 pulses. Transfer to your large bowl. Add pork and beef and mix with hands until<br />
thoroughly combine.<br />
5. Transfer meat to foil rectangle and shape into 9x5 inch loaf. Bake until it registers 155 degrees,<br />
75-90 minutes. Remove from oven and turn on broiler.<br />
For the Glaze:<br />
1.While the meat loaf bakes, mix the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat.<br />
Cook stirring occasionally, until thick and syrupy and 5 minutes.<br />
2. Spread 1/2 the glaze evenly over cooked meatloaf. Broil for 2 minutes until bubbly. Repeat with<br />
other 1/2. Remove meatloaf from oven and let cool for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.Linnaehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268438436149465511noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-19535438096098301372012-04-03T08:49:00.002-07:002012-04-03T08:54:17.210-07:00VegetablesWe all need to increase our vegetables....Always. And I need to find new ways to prepare them. Anyone have great veggie side dishes to enjoy these spring and summer vegetables.<br /><br />Here is a super easy and great way to enjoy cauliflower. I must add that I generally don't enjoy cauliflower.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">Roasted Cauliflower</span><br />Origin : Cooks Illustrated<br />Notes : From Jan/Feb 2007. Comes with a soy ginger sauce with scallion or a curry yogurt sauce with cilantro.<br /><br /><br />1 Medium Cauliflower Head, about 2 pounds<br />1/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil<br /><br /><br />Instructions :<br />Adjust oven rack to the lowest position and heat oven to 472 degrees. Line the cookie sheet with<br />foil.<br />Trim the outer leaves of the cauliflowe and cut stem flush with bottom. Cut head into 8 equal<br />wedges so that the core and the florets stay intact. Lay the wedges cut side down on baking sheet.<br />Drizzle with 2 T oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; gently run to evenly distribute oil and<br />seasonings. Gently flip the cauliflower and season other side with remaining 2 T oil, salt and<br />pepper.<br />Cover baking sheet tightly with foil and cook for 10 minutes. Remove foil and continue to roast until bottoms of cauliflower pieces are golden, 8-12 minutes. Remove sheet from oven, and using<br />spatula, carefully flip wedges. Return sheet to oven and continue to roast until cauliflower is golden all over, 8-12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. and serve immediately.Linnaehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268438436149465511noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-35009029854920217922011-09-03T11:33:00.000-07:002011-09-18T13:22:09.798-07:00Denise's Chocolate Chip Cookies2 c brown sugar<div>2 c butter </div><div>2 c sugar</div><div>4 eggs </div><div>2 tbsp vanilla</div><div><br /></div><div>cream together (in kitchen aid) until blended.</div><div><br /></div><div>5 c oatmeal (blended to powder)</div><div>4 c sifted flour</div><div>2 tbsp baking powder</div><div>2 tbsp baking soda</div><div>1 tbsp salt</div><div><br /></div><div>in separate bowl mix together the 5 ingredients above. then gradually add dry mixture into mixer while it's going.</div><div><br /></div><div>once nicely combined, mix in 1 1/2 c coconut. </div><div><br /></div><div>you might want to do the following on the counter because it might be too much for a bowl!!</div><div><br /></div><div>add 2 cups chocolate chips</div><div><br /></div><div>add 2 cups chopped walnuts</div><div><br /></div><div>use close to 1/4 c. per giant cookie. form into balls.</div><div><br /></div><div>bake for 12 minutes at 350.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div><br /></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-82865289471138602542011-07-20T19:39:00.000-07:002011-07-20T20:59:03.310-07:00Mixed up Spaghettifound this on dealectible mommies....<br />New theme!!

I made these last night for the missionaries. They were so quick and easy. I used a brownie mix for the cake. It was nice because it cooked 10 minutes. Easy. They were a hit.

I am having fun so once again THANK YOU AUNTIE JANNY!<br /><br />So I made the Chocolate Peanut Butter Layered Cupcakes (I again forgot a picture!!! Angry!). They were a good start but I need some help perfecting this one. The peanut butter layer was very good but the chocolate layer wasn't right. First, it had little chocolate flavor, and second, it was too soft. So I need you to brainstorm and help. I need your amazing chocolate cupcake recipes, or brownie like cakes. If I cannot find one, I would rather use a brownie mix instead of the cake they used.<br /><br />Prep TIme :35 minutes<br />Start to Finish 1 H 35 m<br />Servings:24 cupcakes<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Chocolate Layer</span><br />1 recipe for chocolate cupcakes (or 1 brownie mix)<br />1/2 cup peanut butter chips (put into the mix)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Peanut Butter Layer</span><br />1 egg<br />8 oz cream cheese<br />1/3 cup sugar<br />1/3 cup powdered sugar<br />1/2 cup chocolate chips<br /><br />Preheat the oven to 350.<br />In one bowl, make the chocolate layer (This is where you come in and help me find an amazingly rich chocolate cupcake recipe). In a second bowl mix together all the ingredients for the Peanut Butter Layer.<br />Grease the pan (or the cupcake liners if you are using them). Layer from bottom to top, 1 T chocolate mix, 1 T peanut butter mix, 1 T chocolate mix, 1 T peanut butter mix. If you'd like, sprinkle the top with a few more chips.<br />Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes in the pans, remove from pan and finish cooling.<br /><br />PLEASE HELP ME PERFECT THIS BEAUTIFUL WORKLinnaehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268438436149465511noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-36639637687705519382011-05-24T16:26:00.000-07:002011-05-27T12:06:52.339-07:00Lettuce WrapsCopycat Recipe: PF Chang’s Lettuce Wrap Recipe<br />yum!<br /><br />from http://www.wasabimon.com/<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Recipe for dipping and pouring sauce</span><br />4 tablespoons sugar<br />1/2 cup hot water<br />3 tablespoons soy sauce<br />2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar<br />2 tablespoons ketchup or canned tomato sauce<br />1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice<br />1/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Recipe for stir-fry sauce</span><br />2 tablespoons soy sauce<br />2 tablespoons brown sugar (not packed tightly)<br />1/2 teaspoon rice wine vinegar<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Recipe for stir-fried chicken</span><br />1 teaspoon hot water<br />1 tablespoon nice dijon mustard (use the good stuff, it will make a difference)<br />2 garlic cloves, minced<br />2 tablespoons olive oil<br />2 tablespoons dark sesame oil<br />2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into half-inch cubes”<br />1 – 8oz can sliced water chestnuts, drained and minced<br />1/2 cup minced mushrooms (minced to the same size as the water chestnuts)<br />1/2 yellow onion, minced<br />3 garlic cloves, minced<br />6 large leaves of iceberg lettuce<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Method for Pouring Sauce Recipe</span><br />1.In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in 1/2 cup hot water.

Heat until it shimmers, about one minute. Add chicken chunks and stir fry until entirely cooked through, about five minutes. Remove from the chicken pan and allow to cool, but reserve the oil in the wok or pan, keeping it hot over a low flame.<br />3.Take the pan or wok that you cooked the chicken in (with the still warming oil) and turn it up to medium-high heat. Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, wait one minute, and then add the garlic, onions, water chestnuts, mushrooms, cooked chicken, and the stir-fry sauce. Cook everything, stirring constantly, until the mushrooms have cooked through and are tender, about four minutes. Remove from pan and place in a serving dish.<br />4.Add mustard/garlic mixture that you set aside to the pouring sauce, 1/2 a teaspoon at time to taste.<br />5.Serve the entire lettuce wrap recipe in a nice, big serving tray, complete with stir-fry and iceberg lettuce leaves, and pouring sauce in small bowls.

I love risotto. This is such a good recipe. It has so much flavor that I love it. Things to know, risotto does more than the traditional double of normal rice. It pretty much triples and makes a ton. The problem is, you cannot reheat risotto. Bummer. So, to fix that problem, you can make these amazing crispy risotto cakes. (I just made them and forgot pictures!!!) They are so good and make a fun appetizer or side dish a few days later.<br /><br /><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:worddocument> <w:view>Normal</w:View> <w:zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:trackmoves/>

Thus, expanding our current selection.<br /><br />First topic: Side Dishes...<br />These are the hardest for me. I get so caught up in my two or three go to's and I need some variety. So, please add your favorites!Linnaehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268438436149465511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-68628646103741063682011-05-17T20:32:00.000-07:002011-05-17T21:18:51.631-07:00PostingWe would love to have anybody contribute. If you would like, let Linnae know. I am the administrator and can change the access privileges. Also, when posting take note of the labels that are already created and add whichever ones fit your post. I have been trying to the following categories on posts<br />1-the course: main dish, side dish, breakfast, or bread.<br />2-the main ingredient: beef, chicken, pasta<br />2-the category: italian, mexican, chinese, ect.<br />3-some extra notes: healthy (speaks for itself), family (if it is a family recipe), crockpot, freezer friendly.<br />Put all and any that apply to the dish. I will keep monitoring labels so we make sure the blog is complete when we do searches. If anyone has any suggestions for improvements or additions, let me know.<br /><br />Also, if you click to become a follower, it emails you of any comments that are added to posts.

I make it in muffin tins instead of as a loaf of bread and mini muffin tins for the kids.

Here is one of my favorite ways to eat butter.<br /><br />Lion House Dinner Rolls<br /><br /><div><div>2 cups <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=459">warm water</a> (110 to 115 degrees)<br />2 tablespoons <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=62">dry yeast</a><br />2 1/2 teaspoons <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=359">salt</a><br />2 eggs<br />2/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder<br />1/3 cup <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=139">sugar</a><br />1/3 cup <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=141">butter</a> or <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=430">shortening</a><br />5-5 1/2 cups <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=64">all-purpose flour</a> or <a href="http://www.recipezaar.com/library/getentry.zsp?id=64">bread flour</a><br /><br />Mix the water, sugar, butter, salt, dry milk, and 5 c. flour together until combined. Make sure to tap the flour down in the cup with a knife until it is settled into the cup (giving you a full 1 cup measurement). After this has been sufficiently mixed, add teh eggs and yeast. Mix together again until combined. Add the last 1/2-1 c. of flour to the dough (if needed and too sticky). Let this mix on high for 5 minutes until the dough becomes slightly stiff and stretchy. Let teh dough rise until doubled in size. Pull and roll the dough into balls and place thirty rolls on a cookie sheet (5 rolls by 6 rolls). Let them rise on a cookie sheet until the balls begin to touch. Bake at 350 degrees on the middle rack for 25-30 minutes. Butter tops after roll are out of the oven.</div></div>Carinnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14192493574119833407noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-21103077180088423322011-05-16T20:03:00.000-07:002011-05-17T20:30:44.183-07:00Pioneer Woman Pizza DoughWe have pizza night every Friday, so this is a staple in our house.

Cover the tortillas with half of the pieces of cut up chicken. Mix soup, sour cream, olives, and chciles and thin mixture with a little milk. Spread half the mixture over the top of the chicken. Spread half cheese over the sauce. Repeat layers. You can substitue low fat cream and chicken and light sour cream with basically the same results.Nicolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396621055660790821noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-30386629720349757182011-05-15T19:05:00.000-07:002011-05-15T19:09:53.899-07:00Jeanne's Chocolate Chip CookiesThis is the best cookie recipe I have ever tried and now because of it I am somehow always asked to make my chocolate chip cookies.

I like either cheddar and bacon or swiss with the ham. I'm next going to try to spice it up with pepper jack and some fresh peppers sauted with the onions. I think that sounds good too!!!<br /><br />3/4 Cup Onion<br />2 Tablespoon Butter<br />1 Unbaked Pie Shell<br />8 Ounce Cheese, grated<br />1 Cup Light Cream or Milk<br />3 Eggs, beaten<br />1 Tablespoon Flour<br />1/2 Teaspoon Salt<br />1/4 Teaspoon Dry Mustard<br />1/8 Teaspoon Pepper<br />1 Teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce<br />4-6 Slice Bacon, or<br />1 Cup Ham<br /><br />Preheat oven to 350. Saute the onions in butter until tender. Pour into the bottom of the pie shell.<br />Combine the rest of the ingredients, except the mean. Add to the pie shell. Sprinkle the meat over the top and bake for 50-60 minutes.Linnaehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268438436149465511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070594732530816225.post-41970357699559265652011-05-13T21:36:00.000-07:002011-05-16T21:39:27.679-07:00Yogurt Fruit SaladMy friend and I went through a phase when we were eating this for lunch like everyday for 2 weeks. Its that good. I made it again on Mother's day and remembered why the love was so strong. And you can use fat free cool whip, sugar free pudding, etc to make it light. Or you can use whole yogurt like I did on accident once and wonder why it was even better than usual :) Eat it for lunch and tell yourself you are eating yogurt with some berries filled with anti oxidants......<br /><br /><br />Yogurt Fruit Salad<br /><br />1- large pkg. instant pudding (banana cream or French Vanilla)<br />1- 8 oz. ctn. Cool Whip<br />1- 32 oz. ctn. Vanilla yogurt<br />Frozen mixed berries (as desired)<br /><br />Mix first three ingredients together with mixer until smooth, then fold in berries. Refrigerate until time to serve.Nicolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396621055660790821noreply@blogger.com0
